I wanted to , but i didn't post this on a Colts forum fearing that i would forever get the "troll" label. So I will ask here to any Colts fans still hanging out.

Do any colts fans deny that the refs gave the Colts 6 free points with those 2 bad defensive PI calls and that the refs pretty much called the game in your favor? I hate saying the refs screwed us crap, but this game it was sooo blatantly obvious, i really want to know what Colt fans think?

If you really think in your heart that the Refs knowingly gave the Colts some call and or 6 points, then nothing I can say will change your mind. All I can say is it was a great game, the Pats won and deserved to win, and you need to get a life! Jesus the game is over, the pats won!! Talk about something else like how you are going to survive your by week!

I don't know if there was anything called on purpose to give the Colts the advantage, I do feel that one call, not sure who it was, but they cut in front of Wayne going toward the endzone and empeded his stride, from what I understand that is PI, not sure what other call your talking about though can you tell me which play? Some of the other when they blocked the guy out of bounds was pretty blatent, that that one tripping was pretty blatent also...

Well if they're both playing the ball the defensive player beats him to the spot it's not PI. When Moss was called for PI where not only was he not guilty of the offense his arm was being held by the Colts player and should have been defensive PI. That was pretty blatant. And Belichick having to waste a challenge on a call in the Colts favor that had not 1 but 2 officials on both sides of the receiver. And I won't even go to the Hobbs PI call that even Boomer Esiason (who's very level headed and not a Patriots homer) said on the radio today was a very bad call and he also felt the officiating was particularly bad and heavy on the Patriots in that game. But, us Pats fans have (unfortunately) just come to expect it. It just REALLY sux when it costs the Pats their season (see Pats v Denver '05 playoffs).

Well being a Colts fan Im going to be Biased of course, we could sit here and debate on it all night, yes I do think some of the calls were a little Iffy and shouldn't have been called. I don't know if they blatently were trying to help the Colts or if it was just bad offiiciating (sp) being a Colts fan I want to believe it was just horrible refs that suck, I heard they were rookie refs, don't the Colts and Pats deserve the best for a huge regular season game like this?

there were 3, not 2, ridiculously bad PI calls... moss, samuel, and hobbs.. plus, the phantom spot of an impossible first down at the end of the second quarter...

Accually, I'm still wondering how Randy Moss can have his arms pinned to his sides and still the ref's ignore it.

I also wonder why Colts defenders can have one hand on the back of the offensive reciever and climb over his back and thats legal, but if a Patriot DB even gets near a Colt reciever the official already has his hand on the flag.

Hold on partner, before you start getting all angry becaused I asked a question on a Forum. I was curious and this place allows me to ask the question, if you like it or not is up to you , but if you don't like my questions then just ignore it and move on.

The pick, I forgot the Brady pick at the end of the first half, the replay wouldn't show it, but the Colt who picked the ball pushed Stallworth (I think it was) 20 yards down field in the open. Illegal contact. What the hollier than thou Colts always complain about.

I watched it the whole game, Colts bumping Patriot recievers all over the field, well beyond the 5 yards the Colts demanded the league enforce.

I find it hard to believe that corruption in the officiating could be kept a secret but, after what was revealed in the NBA last year who knows. I think the NFL would love nothing better than a Manning v Manning Super Bowl. And we could see more of this when we play the Giants in the last game of the reg season.

I can remember the Colts getting a first down on a play where I thought there was no way in hell, I remember seeing the play and running to the fridge to get something and coming back for what I thought was going to be a big 3rd down play and it said 1st down on the screen, I was thinking WTF im surprise it wasn't challenged, I thought the Colts committed a PI on Moss.

Yeah I forgot about the NBA , that does make you wonder sometimes. I sure hope they have the top refs if the Colts and Pats do meet again in the playoffs, we don't need any rookie's. It seems like there are alot of complaints after Colts games about the officiating and people saying we get all the breaks, when you hear it all the time, it just makes you wonder if its true...I sure the hell hope not, I would have a hard time being a fan again if they ever uncovered a corruption in the officiating that was trying to favor the Colts..

To be honest I would have to see a replay, I normally tivo all the games but I watched this game at a friends house and I didn't tivo this game, I normally will rewind close plays or what I think is a bad call and replay it a few times in slow motion, I don't have that benefit for this game. For the most part when your watching a big game and a call goes your way you don't think about if its the right call at that particular time in the game, your just happy something went your way, im sure you know how that is..
